If you have enough emails that you can't SELECT * FROM users and do that query in memory, you're probably in a spot where you should not be picking security advice from a blog like this.

(That's not a negative as to this blog, it's really good and I've recommended it to multiple clients already, but that level of acumen should already be assumed at that scale. If you don't have it, this blog post is insufficient.)
